Hi everyone, I've managed a full week of LTW, bringing my tally up to 14/18. I made a portion of carrot and parsnip soup on Sunday and this lasted until Thursday (I must admit, I was happy it didn't stretch to Friday, I was getting a bit fed up with it). Friday was the true victory though - payday and all in the office had spoken about going to the chippy. I haven't been in a position to join in with buying lunch the last few weeks, so it's been easy to resist, it was much more challenging when could actually afford to join in. But, because I'm very conscious I only have 1 non-LTW day left before the end of the month, I brought a tin of soup with a bread roll (bread roll as my Friday treat) instead! Yeah - mini DFW victory.
In the true spirit of DFW, I think I may have a change next week from soup and use up some fish pate tubs I've had in the store cupboard for a few months and make sandwiches for my lunches. Even though I prepare sandwiches almost daily for DH and DD's lunches, I rarely have them myself, so it will be nice for a change.
Signing up to these challenges really does make you change your habits and for me it is a really good thing!SPC # 348 2014-£169.07/2015 - £156.89
